Players can set up their PlayStation controller for MultiVersus. In fighting games, being able to change any of the player's controls is essential for a comfortable experience. Unfortunately, when one control scheme might work for one player doesn't mean it would work for everyone. Fortunately, MultiVersus allows players to change every single button on their controller into something else. For certain moves, it's even possible to double-dip, enabling a move to come out by pressing multiple buttons. Since MultiVersus features crossplay, there will be hundreds to thousands of different controllers and controller schemes.
Of course, the PlayStation 5 Dualsense and PlayStation 4 Dualshock are excellent controllers in their own way. Comfortable size, soft buttons, and an analog stick with a perfect hole to place the player's thumbs. It's an excellent choice to use as a controller in MultiVersus due to a large number of button options. To get started, plug in either the Dualsense or Dualshock into the PC. A new firmware update for the controller will need to be installed first.
To play MultiVersus with a Dualsense, head to the PlayStation Dualsense Controller website and download the newest firmware upgrade. Next, download the updater to the desktop and run the installation file. After that, just follow the onscreen instructions until the program is successfully installed. Now, run the program and use a USB to connect the controller to the PC. Run the program, and it will automatically update the Dualsense to its most recent firmware upgrade. Now, players can get it to work with Steam and change the controls there.
Using A PlayStation Dualsense on MultiVersus
After updating the controller, open up Steam and select the box icon with the two arrows on the top-right section of the screen. This will enable Big Picture Mode and will display controller options. Ensure to check the "PlayStation Configuration Support" box, and now all Steam games will default to PlayStation inputs when the controller is plugged in. This will work for both the PlayStation 5's Dualsense and the PlayStation 4's Dualshock. Boot up MultiVersus and start choosing controller options from the setting menu.
Here, players can choose which button they would like to input whatever move. Scrolling down a bit will reveal a few more control options, like enabling tap jump or allowing characters to fall through platforms by crouching twice. There are even options to input buffers between moves or change certain dead zones for attacks. Of course, controller options at this point are up to preference.
MultiVersus is available now on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4.
